lyrics

They say let sleeping dogs lie
But don't lie down with them
If you do then don't be surprised
When you wake up flea ridden
Your red skin and bite marks remind
Consequences of not falling in line
If you put them out of your mind
You will get through just fine

This is one place that you don't belong
So keep your nose out
And if all these lines are redrawn
Then you'd better look out
Cus I'm not done with you yet
Hope you have no regrets

Been offered a word from the wise
But you wouldn't listen
And if you won't take my advice
Then good luck on your mission
You might not get a second chance
So you might as well peel the skin off your teeth
As you go let me take a glance
So I can see what's beneath

This is one place that you don't belong
So keep your nose out
And if all these lines are redrawn
Then you'd better look out
Cus I'm not done with you yet
Hope you have no regrets

This is one place that you don't belong
So keep your nose out
And if all these lines are redrawn
Then you'd better look out
Cus I'm not done with you yet
Hope you have no regrets
